Just in case you’re wondering what the news is all about (or if you’re just curious about the red equal signs you may or may not be seeing all over Facebook), here is a link that will help you learn a little more.

Regardless of what happens in the Supreme Court (and decisions won’t likely come before summer), it’s already pretty historic that they’re even talking about it. Anyone who knows me knows that I’m a pretty firm believer in equal rights for everyone and that obviously includes marriage equality for members of the gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender community. Honestly, anything other than that doesn’t make any logical sense to me. But while this may seem obvious to me and many people who think like me, it’s just now becoming commonplace in the mainstream culture. It’s heartwarming to now see so many people coming out to support gay marriage rights and it’s even more heartwarming to realize that many of these supporters aren’t gay themselves. I really do think that our kids and grandkids will one day see people who are against gay marriage in the same light that we see people who were against interracial marriage. And I’m glad I’ll be on the side that embraces love, no matter who it’s coming from!
